Chewing Gum

With their cardboard hands by their sides, here's a naked man and lady
And they're yours to cut out and keep and you can dress them up maybe
They don't know just who they are, or who they're supposed to be
You can make them happy or sad or assume their identity

So here they are in the departure lounge, it's the "Gateway to the East"
She is just another mail-order bride, she doesn't know he's a kinky beast
Now he gives her a picture of Maradona and child
She wants to "roll and rock"
As he spills his beer over her
Bumps and he grinds as he repeats "Bang-Cock"

(Chorus:)
There must be something that is better than this
It starts with a slap and ends with a kiss
Begins with you bawling and it ends up in tears
Oh my little one, take that chewing gum out of your ears

She might as well be in the jungle, she might as well be on the moon
He's away on a business trip in Dusseldorf, but she's becoming immune
To the lack of glamour and danger in the West-German city today
The nearest she comes to the "Dynasty" life he promised her
Is a Chinese takeaway

(Repeat Chorus)

Though he only taught her three little words
It doesn't matter if they're dirty or clean
He can only control what they look like
He can never possess what they mean

So he wants to whisper in her ear
All the shrinking nothingness
But something always comes between them
I wonder if you can guess

(Repeat Chorus)
